    TRON controllers will be available for purchase

    Rejoice user! Devin won't be keeling over from auto-erotic asphyxiation after all. The TRON controllers that he saw at E3 and threatened to hold his breath over? Well, they are going to be for sale. To be honest, I haven't considered replacing my stock Xbox 360 controllers until this point, but now I'm afraid I have no choice.

  • Best Buy iPhone inventory details leak

    Best Buy iPhone inventory details leak

    Looks like Best Buy's inventory details for the iPhone 4 launch have leaked out, and -- if you were one of the many unlucky iPhone luvahs that were unable to place a pre-order last week -- you may want to plan your June 24th around the details. The skinny of it is that most stores are receiving anywhere between 20 and 70 phones.

  • Photo set: The Dell Streak vs the HTC EVO 4G

    Photo set: The Dell Streak vs the HTC EVO 4G

    First off let me apologize for the photo quality. I only had a few short minutes to spend the Streak and it happened to be in a dark room that looked like Batman decorated it. So the photos aren't the best, but this is just a taste. We'll have a proper set soon. Anyway, I happened to have an EVO 4G with me and I must say that the Dell Streak makes it look like normal-sized phone. There is a large difference in the overall size even though the screen size is only .7-inches larger. It's as thin as the Evo, but it still feels a bit too large to be a phone. However, that thought might be premature as it might be something you need to use to appreciate. The whole package feels solid, refined and wonderful. It's clearly not for everyone given its large size, but a lot of people will probably love it. Click through for photos.

    Here are your Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword movements

Click through for what we can only assume are the 11 major control movements for the upcoming Zelda title.

    Hands-on with Creative’s ZiiSound D5 and D200 Bluetooth speakers

    I’ve been following Creative for so long I feel like they’re old friends to me. I’ve been impressed over the years with their MP3 player line but they, like so many audio manufacturers, have seen the writing on the wall and the future isn’t in making the MP3 players – it’s in making the stuff [...]

    Sony PlayStation Move Charging Station: $29, charges two Move controllers simultaneously

    Buried in the depth's of Sony's online archives were these photos of the PlayStation Move Charging Station, a device we don't remember seeing at the big E3 booth. Or maybe we're blind. In any event: the Charging Station, as the name implies, charges your Move controllers. Up to two at a time, too.

    The sights of E3 2010

    Sony Ericsson outs their first full-touch Walkman-branded feature phone: Yendo

    You know, not all of us want a smart phone. There are people out there who only use a mobile to make calls, send texts, and listen to a few tunes. They're not the ones reading this blog, though. Maybe you know one of them and want to pass this information on? Anyway, Sony Ericsson today announced (alongside their next Android handset, the X8) their first ever full-touch, Walkman-branded, probably-not-very-expensive, feature-phone: the Yendo.

    Sony Ericsson announces Xperia X8, plus Android 2.1 updates to Xperia X10 line

    Two pieces of good news here for Sony Ericsson fans: the company today announced the next phone in their Xperia line, the X8. Slotting in below the X10, the X8 will be its smaller, cheaper sibling. Speaking of the X10, here's the other piece of good news: they (as in all three types of the X10), will get a bump from Android 1.6 to Android 2.1 in Q3 of this year. For the original X10, the bump will also bring HD video recording, which is a neat bonus.

    The Attack of the Mutant Squares, Part II: The Nokia X5-01

    Not to be outshone by Motorola, Nokia today announced at their annual Nokia Connection event in Singapore the text- and social media-focussed, square-bodied X5-01. Yes! Marvel at the novelty of the form factor! Be dazzled by its bright colours! Feel befuddled by its gesture system! What gesture system? Well, rather than go to the hassle of making you press a button, Nokia have decided it's much easier to spin your phone in a circle to activate shuffle mode on the music player.

In fact, Lumber Liquidators is in four of the eight pics Joystiq featured in their preview post making me think that something big goes down in the shadow of a huge ad.
